🚨 Breaking from the US Senator for Connecticut. 👇 There you have it. ICE has never been about immigration enforcement. It's a weapon used to brutalize Americans and stoke enough fear so that Trump can rig the elections and usher in dictatorship.

Sarwar chose not to let you know this information because it suits him politically . He does not care about patients it’s all about him trying to get to Bute house and will use anyone and anybody to do so !!

Glad to hear Mayor Zohran Mamdani is considering a baby box scheme in New York. The Scottish Government has sent over a Baby Box to share our experience and hopefully offer some inspiration. Since we launched it in 2017, I’m proud it’s giving every child the best start in life. 🏴

A former Soviet spy says that Trump was indeed recruited to the KGB 38 years ago by his department. He was given a codename, 'Krasnov'. We checked, and the source was indeed a KBG intelligence officer at the time. Read about it in my @BylineTimes report:

If the UK media now do not apply equal harsh measures to Nigel Farage than they did to Angela Raynor, then they are complicit in a) a Mysoginist narrative where men are forgiven and women 'should have known better' and b) are actively saying they are okay with Farage in charge.

Latest figures out today show Scotland’s unemployment rate fell to 3.7%, and is below the UK rate of 5.1%. If Scotland can do this with limited economic powers, imagine what more we could do if we had the full powers of independence.

Just to be clear: the President is single-handedly dragging America to economic crisis and war with our closest allies. And why? To conquer an overseas territory that we have no claim to, have never had a claim to, and already have military bases on. Oh, and because he didn’t get a prize.

Thanks to the decisions we’ve taken, 55% of Scottish taxpayers are now expected to pay less income tax than if they lived in England. And unlike in England, they will continue to benefit from free tuition, free prescriptions, no peak rail fares and expanded childcare.
